Chapter 9 Heavy losses
At this time, there was another loud bang, which resounded throughout the valley.
Tian Feng's face changed suddenly, and he seemed to understand something.
Guo Jia also frowned, feeling that things were tricky.
The army stopped a hundred feet away in front of the valley, a large area of black crows, but it was silent, in stark contrast to the rumbling sound of the valley.
Everyone's face was very calm, and there was no panic in the slightest.
Zhang Langzheng was surprised by the sound just now, and had a bad feeling in his heart, at this moment, a soldier ran up in disgrace, panting and said: "Lord, the big thing is not good, the barbarian army blocked the valley mouth with falling rocks, General Ding Feng is trapped inside, life and death are uncertain, and please ask the lord to decide." ”
Zhang Lang's face turned blue and terrifying, he couldn't imagine that the Shanyue army would be so vicious, this move was so hot that Ding Feng's entire army was annihilated.
Zhang Lang couldn't help but regret his rash actions at the beginning.
However, regretting it now is not a solution, and he resolutely ordered: "Han Juzi, you immediately lead the Black Eagle Guard to climb the valley ridge, don't tell me that the mountain cliffs are dangerous, the Black Eagle Guard is capable of what people can't, how you usually train you, you can do it." After you climb the mountain, immediately put down the rope and send a few shrewd people to keep an eye on the Shanyue army, if they retreat, you must keep an eye on it, I will pull out their nest in Qiyun Mountain. In the end, Zhang Lang said hatefully, his face full of anger and murder.
"Yes." Han Juzi replied without thinking about it, his face was extremely high. His breathless voice was heard far away in the dead army, which made countless people feel uplifted.
"General Han doesn't need to worry, with the surname Ke of Shanyue, he will not withdraw easily when Ding Feng's troops are not completely wiped out. So you'll have plenty of time to find the Yamayue troops who set up an ambush. Tian Feng returned to his true colors as a wise man and nodded.
"The last will understand." Han Juzi nodded. Then he turned to the side and yelled at the audience: "Black Eagle Guard gathers." ”
Just like that, hundreds of people came out of nowhere like ghosts, and concentrated in front of Zhang Lang. Everyone was dressed in black suits, with a leather pouch pinned to their waists, carrying small crossbow arrows, and carrying special long ropes, all of them were in good spirits.
Then, under Han Juzi's order, they all began to look for the best place to climb the mountain with quick steps.
When the soldiers saw that Zhang Lang had such a strange but surprising force, their morale couldn't help but rise.
Seeing that the Black Eagle Guard began to act, Zhang Lang immediately shouted: "Yan Ming." ”
Yan Ming immediately came out of the queue and shouted: "The end will be." ”
"Immediately lead some of your men to find a way to clear the stones blocking the valley mouth." Zhang Lang said majestically.
Yan Ming received the order to go down.
Zhang Lang also asked Xu Huang to lead thousands of people to prepare to meet Han Juzi at any time to climb the mountain.
As soon as Zhang Lang finished giving all the orders, the two sides of the valley suddenly shook the sky, and the Shanyue ambush army was outflanked, and he wanted to catch the Jiangdong army by surprise.
But he didn't expect that the mouth of the valley was blocked by Huang Xu and Zhu Huan, and the sound of killing was everywhere for a while.
At this time, all the generals below admired Zhang Lang's unpredictable prophetic skills, as well as adaptability and command methods, and even Tian Feng and Guo Jia were also amazed.
No one expected that the Shanyue army would really make this move, so they rushed out from both sides, trying to disrupt the already side of the army. If they are allowed to succeed, although there will be no major losses, it will certainly greatly damage the morale of the army and cause the soldiers' combat strength to plummet.
Ding Feng, who was trapped in the valley, suddenly felt a sense of despair, the rolling stones and wooden fences on the slope kept falling, and the soldiers screamed one after another, which showed that the casualties were extremely heavy. Unexpectedly, when the two armies did not formally clash, he was defeated so badly, thinking of this time, Ding Feng almost burst into tears. He was originally ambitious, looking forward to showing his strength under Zhang Lang, and finally got such an opportunity, but he didn't expect it to become such a situation. Once the fame and fortune are gone, if you don't get it right, you will die here on the spot.
It was already dark, but the valley was lit up by rockets.
The weeds on the side began to burn gradually, and everyone was dizzy with the thick smell of smoke, and the fire slowly became fierce, plus the two ends were blocked, Ding Feng's 3,000 troops were burned alive, and with the rockfalls on the mountain, there was a tragic death.
Ding Feng inspected the terrain and shouted: "Everyone lean on the slope and try to hide in the small ditch of the mountain col." ”
At this time, a general on the side dragged a broken thigh and crawled on the ground to Ding Feng's side with difficulty.
A stream of blood poured out of his mouth, gathering the last trace of strength, and said extremely weakly: "General, go quickly." ”
Ding Feng's nose was sour, and tears dripped uncontrollably, and while pulling up the general, he roared tremblingly: "I brought you out, I want to leave, and I want to take you away intact." ”
The general laughed miserably.
Another boulder rolled down the hillside, and with a loud bang, Ding Feng was startled and instinctively ducked to the side.
In the light of the fire, the general was so crushed by the stone that he could never speak.
Ding Feng couldn't control his tears anymore, and shouted heartbrokenly: "Brother." ”
What answered him was the incessant screaming of his father and mother, as well as the chaotic noise.
Ding Fengxin was desperate, and looked numbly around the valley, where corpses were everywhere, and blood flowed like rivers. Of the 3,000 soldiers he had led, there were not many left, and they all fell in pools of blood.
Ding Feng understood in an instant that he had lost. Even if he can go back alive, he will not escape the military punishment. If you can give yourself a chance to do it again, you will never be so impulsive as this time; If there is still a chance, you must not just want to invite merit and move forward; If...... Ding Feng was discouraged, and he said in secret, and slowly closed his eyes.
Time passed little by little, and the Shanyue troops on the valley trails on both sides began to slowly retreat after being blocked by Zhu Huan and Huang Xu.
Zhang Lang was terrifyingly calm, there was no expression on his face, only Yang Rong could understand the feeling of blood dripping in his heart.
Two hours passed......
The valley was full of fires, weeds and trees on both sides were ablaze, and you could feel the heat even outside the valley.
Zhang Lang had already led the soldiers back dozens of meters, but Han Juzi led the black eagle to climb the mountain tenaciously.
Half an hour later, the news finally came that was heartening.
Han Juzi finally climbed the back of the ridge in a place on the northwest side that was not easy to attract attention, and began to put down the long rope and pick up the soldiers to climb the valley wall.
However, the team led by Yan Ming did not have much to do with the piled stones at the mouth of the valley, and the progress was very slow.
The night was almost deep, and the sound in the valley had gradually weakened, Zhang Lang had no hope for Ding Feng's troops to report that they could not be completely annihilated when the two mouths of the valley were blocked, and they were attacked by falling rocks and fire.
It seems that he and the strategists still underestimate the Shanyue troops too much.
Facts have proved that arrogant soldiers will be defeated, and this blood debt is enough to make yourself unforgettable.
Time flew by little by little, and the people led by Yan Ming finally dug up the valley mouth when it was almost dawn.
Some of the soldiers who had already been prepared rushed up, fighting the fire while looking for anyone to see if they had survived.
Fortunately, the weather was not very dry at this time, and the valley was extremely humid, and the fire was not very spread after the rainy season a few days ago. Soon soldiers were carried out. Under the light of the torch, no matter who it is, after taking a look, it can't bear to look at it, and that phenomenon can only be described in four words: strange and unbearable. There was not a complete piece of flesh on the whole body, almost all of it was burnt, and in some places the flesh and blood were blurred, and it was not sincere.
Yang Rong and Zhao Yu had already retreated to the back, and they couldn't bear to see that miserable appearance.
Zhang Lang let them carry them over one after another with a blank face, and every time he looked at a dead soldier, the hatred in his heart would increase by a point.
At this time, someone exclaimed: "My lord, I have found General Ding." ”
Zhang Lang's body shook and strode forward to meet him.
The conspirators and generals also hurried to follow.
The two soldiers carried Ding Feng, who was full of burnt faces, his face was black, his head was half feverish, his clothes were hundreds, and his whole body was dyed red. It can be seen from his armadillo face that he is extremely unwilling.
Zhu Huan usually has a very close relationship with Ding Feng, and when he saw this situation, he rushed up excitedly, hugged Ding Feng's head, and shouted twice: "Brother." Seeing that he didn't react, he put his hand on his nose, half a sound, and his face was extremely ugly: "Lord, Ding Feng has lost his breath." ”
Zhang Lang felt a sadness in his heart, but he still didn't want to give up, did he lose a general in vain?
Yang Rong felt that Zhang Lang's palm was getting tighter and tighter, and seemed to understand his dazed mood, so she couldn't help but say, "Husband, I'll take a look." ”
Zhang Lang looked at Yang Rong and couldn't help but nodded.
Yang Rong asked the soldiers to put him on the ground, and then regardless of the unpleasant smell of burnt on his body, he put his ear to Ding Feng's chest, listened carefully, and saw if there was a heartbeat.
Everyone looked at Yang Rong nervously and admiringly, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhang Lang's spirits were greatly lifted, and he suddenly rushed up to Yang Rong's side.
Others may not know, but Zhang Lang didn't want to know that Ding Feng might still have a heartbeat, otherwise Yang Rong would not have used the heartbeat resuscitation method to forcibly stimulate his heart. Maybe he still has a breath of air.
The generals didn't understand Zhang Lang's reason very much, but they saw that Yang Rong began to press Ding Feng's chest rhythmically, loosening and tightening. Could it be that Ding Feng is still saved? All of them had such thoughts in their minds. Tian Feng was not surprised, and he was looking forward to Yang Rong's performance.
Everyone in the audience looked at Yang Rong very nervously.
Minutes and seconds passed......
Half an hour later, everyone almost thought that Ding Feng had no hope, only Zhu Huan suddenly shouted like crazy: "Lord, Ding Feng, he is breathing, he is saved." ”
Ding Feng, who was fainting, was really shocked, and then began to breathe slowly.
Only then did Yang Rong stand up, and before she had time to wipe the beads of sweat on her forehead, she ordered the soldiers: "Call the military doctor immediately." Although Ding Feng recovered his breath, the injury was too serious, not only broke several ribs and injured internal organs, but also broke his thigh bone and broken arm, and he needed immediate surgery. ”
Zhu Huan said excitedly: "Madam, is Ding Feng still saved?" ”
Yang Rong thought for a while and said, "I'm not sure, I'll do my best." Because he inhaled too much smoke, which led to poisoning, it was up to him to survive or not. ”
At this time, Ding Feng miraculously slowly opened his eyes.
Zhang Lang immediately held his hand and said, "Ding Feng, you're fine." ”
When Ding Feng saw Zhang Lang, his eyes immediately widened, and his mouth kept moving, but he couldn't speak.
Of course, Zhang Lang understood his state of mind, and comforted: "It's okay, it's not your fault, don't take it to heart." Remember, no matter what, if you want to live, in my future hegemony, I can't live without you, Ding Feng. ”
Ding Feng burst into tears in an instant.
But he couldn't say a word, and his chest kept rising and falling.
Everyone was first stunned by Yang Rong's medical skills, and then impressed by Zhang Lang's bearing, this is the best lord.
Yang Rong saw that Ding Feng was too excited, so she hurriedly opened Zhang Lang and said to the soldiers: "Carry General Ding down and operate immediately." ”
Only then did the soldiers put Ding Feng down, and everyone came back to their senses, and then took a turn in the valley, needless to say, none of the Shanyue soldiers had already run away.
In the battle, the 3,000 soldiers led by Ding Feng were almost completely wiped out, leaving nearly 100 people with countless injuries, and none of them could be intact. This is a blow that Zhang Lang has never received since he sent out his troops.
Soon Zhang Lang ordered the soldiers to dig a large pit and bury the dead soldiers together.
And after the 5,000 soldiers led by Xu Huang climbed all over the valley, they followed the code left by the eagle guard, and sent someone to report Zhang Lang's latest situation.
Zhang Lang then led some other soldiers across the valley and prepared to camp and rest in batches.
However, Guo Jia did not agree with Zhang Lang's idea.
Guo Jia said: "There is no doubt that there is a person with profound scheming in the Shanyue army. At this time, it is almost dawn, and if the whole army of our side thinks that after tonight, nothing will happen for the time being, and they relax their vigilance, it is a big mistake. On the contrary, the subordinates felt that the other party might think that after a night of fatigue, we would let our guard down, and then take a good rest and attack the camp in one fell swoop. ”
Tian Feng also agreed with Guo Jia's idea. The road is now like walking on thin ice, when every step is in the camp, and caution is the best. The other party will definitely take advantage of the fire to rob, and then Zhang Lang should try to take advantage of such an opportunity. Kill it well.
Zhang Lang's heart was moved by the words, and then he and the two went out of the camp to watch the terrain.
The three of them turned around, Guo Jia clapped his hands, pointed to a dense forest in front of him, and said: "If there are buried soldiers in the mountains, they will be here." ”
Zhang Lang looked at it: "If it were me, I would definitely wait for the day to dawn, and when the opponent's defense was the weakest, I would rush towards the Chinese army in one fell swoop and capture the thief and the king." ”
Tian Feng nodded and said: "Yes, as long as the lord is in his village and the ambush is outside, he will revenge Ding Feng." ”
At this time, Han Juzi sent someone with news and said: "Shanyue ambushed Zhang Lang's troops, and the number of troops was about five hundred, but when they retreated halfway, they found that a large group of people and horses set off, and it must be the main force of the Shanyue clan in Qiyun Mountain. ”
When Guo Jia heard this, he turned back to Zhang Lang and said, "In this way, Qiyun Mountain can be determined." ”
